Nope- no facial affect. Transient ischemic attack possibly.

I fail to comprehend your incessant need to argue with me about signs and symptoms of an evolving CVA or TIA. I’ve worked with more than a dozen neurologists and neurosurgeons, and I’ve taught classes on the subject. You?

Note: effect, not affect, while those in-the-know would describe weakness or droop or hemiparesis. Got it?

Incessant- have no idea what you state. Have never argued with you about clinical assessment in differential diagnosis, or much else in all the years on FR since 1999. The man was staring into space, frozen. Just as possible he was having an absence seizure from hitting his head weeks ago.

Affect [af´ekt] in this instance was-frozen, no expression. Here endeth the lesson and your monologue.
